As we say our fond farewells to Annette, who is leaving Healthwatch Central Bedfordshire (HWCB) to pursue another engagement role within the local community, she has written a short message about her time with us.

I began my Healthwatch journey way back in 2019 as a volunteer and after becoming the Engagement & Volunteer Officer in December 2020 I have made great friends, tried many new things and hopefully helped a lot of people along the way.

I have learnt so much from all of the HWCB team of dedicated staff, Directors and volunteers; thankyou to you all for your support, hard work and laughter.

Overall, it has been a great experience working with you all and I hope to support Healthwatch in the future as a volunteer (you don’t get rid of me that easily…ha ha)

I’m sure my successor will continue with the good work that Healthwatch does in improving health and social care for everyone.

Good luck & see you soon.
